Day 5731
Day 5731 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Cass Tanner has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Whatever Cole Whitlow and Nell Tidewater were circling, they have landed on it. Ned Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Key, and No Lock reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
